And the sexes of the babies are...

Well, April apparently takes after our dog Emma, as she too is carrying twin boys. However, we are not sure at this point if the are fraternal (like Turq and Tanner) or identical, so one mystery still remains. While Turq, Tanner and myself all are relieved that the balance of power in the house will stay on the male side of the force, April is a little sad not to have a little baby Eva to dress up in girly clothing. Much like the highly anticipated female dog Jade that was never born to Emma, we too will have to put a daughter on hold for the time being. The best news is, in 18 years, Stoneball will have two new members.
Look below for the latest ultrasound photos:

Baby A is the fiesty one, and in this picture is sitting on Baby B (who is just trying to catch some shut eye) 's head.
Here we see Baby A has all the parts he needs to survive in the world.
The bottom of Baby A's feet.

Here is my favorite photo of Baby A's profile and torso. You can see his nose and mouth, we even saw him yawn and hiccup. April seemed relieved that his nose looks like hers.

Baby B, who already has gotten less attention than Baby A, is happy to show he has a functioning heart.

And at least one foot (the other is off camera)

And finally, we can see both babies' hearts. This picture confuses me, I'm not sure what we're looking at here, but it's my mom's favorite one.
